?—List Layers
Displays a list of the currently defined layers, showing their names, states,
color numbers, linetypes, lineweights, and whether they are externally
dependent layers.
Make
Creates a layer and makes it current. New objects are drawn on the current
layer.
If no layer exists for the name you enter, a new layer with that name is created.
The new layer is on and assumes the following properties by default: color
number 7, the CONTINUOUS linetype, and a lineweight of DEFAULT.
If the layer exists but is turned off, it is turned on.
Set
Specifies a new current layer but does not create the layer if it does not already
exist. If the layer exists but is turned off, it is turned on and made current. A
frozen layer cannot be made current.
New
Creates layers. You can create two or more layers by entering names separated
by commas.
